1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down. Yes, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
2 On the willows in the midst of it, We hung up our harps.
3 For there, those who led us captive asked us for songs. Those who tormented us demanded songs of joy: \"Sing us one of the songs of Zion!\"
4 How can we sing Yahweh's song in a foreign land?
5 If I forget you, Jerusalem, Let my right hand forget its skill.
6 Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don't remember you; If I don't prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7 Remember, Yahweh, against the children of Edom, The day of Jerusalem; Who said, \"Raze it! Raze it even to its foundation!\"
8 Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, He will be happy who rewards you, As you have served us.
9 Happy shall he be, Who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock.
